The Breeze Hat - Royal Blue

How hard can it be to get your hands on a high-quality snapback hat these days? When we set out to answer that question, we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. But then again, pasting the Hyperlite Mountain Gear logo onto any old shipped-from-god-knows-where hat wasn’t going to happen: It had to stand up to the trials and tribulations of the deep backcountry, and look good doing it.

To us, that means made in America. No ifs, ands or buts about it, but also no small feat in today’s world. So we searched and scoured and tested our way through the options before coming out with a winner.

At long last, it’s here—for the long haul. Rugged cotton twill, mesh panels, white Hyperlite Mountain Gear seal on front, from Unionmade in New Jersey. Done and done.
